Web CMS Comparison: Plone Vs. Drupal Web CMS Comparison: Plone vs. Drupal" Ken Wasetis - Contextual " [email protected]" twitter: @ctxlken" irc: ctxlken" www.contextualcorp.com 1 2 Why Compare? To Learn To Advise: Be able to compare/contrast in Web CMS discussion To Improve Every problem doesn’t require a hammer http://www.contextualcorp.com3 What is a CMS? Database-driven Content Repository + User Interface + Content Services ----------------------------------------------------- = CMS + Web ------------ = WCMS http://www.contextualcorp.com4 Content Services of CMS Version Control / Audit Trail & Rollback Capabilities Locking (check-in/check-out) Workflow / Approval Process Review Lists and Notifications Content Types - Built-in and/or Custom Fine-grained Permissions Searching/Indexing of Content *Plone is a Web CMS (WCMS) Tool (CMS for managing websites/web content) http://www.contextualcorp.com5 Content Versioning / Audit Trail http://www.contextualcorp.com6 Additional CMS Features Simple WYSIWYG Visual Editor / Rich Text Editing In-context Editing (sometimes) Content Preview with Theme Applied Accessibility (WCAG, Section 508, etc.) Visual Comparison of Revision Differences Management of Metadata (tags, keywords, pub dates, author, credits, other) Sitemap and Taxonomy Management Scheduling of Publishing/Expiration of Content http://www.contextualcorp.com7 Built-in Search http://www.contextualcorp.com8 Typical Add-on Features/Modules Web Forms Slideshows Calendar Microsites Faceted Navigation/Search Embed Videos RSS Feeds/Syndication SEO Enhancements Email Campaign Management / Integration (with MailChimp, others) CRM/Salesforce Integration Content Migration Tools " http://www.contextualcorp.com9 Contextual Editing http://www.contextualcorp.com10 Additional CMS Features Extensible (available add-on modules or custom dev) Allows for Custom Themes SEO-Friendly (helps with search engine rankings) Portlet Management (arrange widgets on page) Dashboard (recent edit/publish activity at-a-glance) Useful Built-in Templates (page, news, event listings, thumbnail layouts, etc.) Plays Nicely With Others (SSO, LDAP/AD, Salesforce, legacy Oracle/SQL Server DBs) Provides Maintenance Scripts/Features (Database backup/restore, restarts, etc.) Reasonable Upgrade Options http://www.contextualcorp.com11 Social Publishing User-generated Content Forums Blogs Comments Twitter/FB Feeds Organic Groups/Birds of a Feather Moderation of UG Content (or not) http://www.contextualcorp.com12 Self-Reflection: What Do You Want to Be? Web CMS Portal Framework Web App Framework Intranet Platform Marketing Platform Digital Business / eBusiness Platform Mobile CMS Other? http://www.contextualcorp.com13 Core Principals & Features: Plone vs. Drupal Plone: Pure Web CMS Features" - Comparable features to enterprise commercial CMS tools" - Workflow, Versioning, In-Context Editing, Permissions, Collections, Search, etc." - Security, Performance" - Open" - IP owned by foundation" - Many core committers Drupal: Social Publishing" - Opposite initial target" - Let outsiders create content (lack of formal permissions/workflow)" - Syndication" - Campaign/Activist tool (DFA, OFA, etc.)" - Marketing sites / theme proliferation" - CiviCRM" - Open" - IP owned by Dries" - Few core committers (compare these projects at http://ohloh.net ) http://www.contextualcorp.com14 Plone Project Velocity http://www.contextualcorp.com15 Drupal Project Velocity http://www.contextualcorp.com16 Convergence: Core Additions vs. Add-ons Plone: " - Better comment management/moderation/workflow in core" - Improved built-in Syndication options with 4.3 (Atom, etc.)" - FB/Twitter Login add-on" - FB/Twitter/MailChimp/Salesforce Add-ons" - Dexterity (custom content types via web GUI, now) Drupal: " - Workflow add-on (still not as robust)" - CCK added to core (custom content types)" - Still have to download/install the visual editor you want (baffling to me)" Twitter: @shmcmahon “OH: in terms of framework, Drupal 8 is our Plone 3”" http://www.contextualcorp.com17 Lots of Similarities to User Web GUI with WYWIGY Editor Toolbar for Admins/Editors Edit forms with fields for metadata Control Portlets / Blocks Control What Shows in Navigation Can Switch Theme via Configuration Area Control Options in WYSIWYG User Dashboard http://www.contextualcorp.com18 Convergence Summary Content Types: Drupal has caught up quite a bit by including in core Web 2.0 Overlays: Plone provides to editors, but should apply more to Site Setup area In-Context Editing: Similar experiences now; Plone might still be a little ahead Navigation/Links: Drupal’s ugly/ambiguous ‘node#’ URLs can be replaced with friendlier and more meaningful and SEO-friendly URLs now, but takes user action/ thought Workflow: Drupal is still lacking Web Services: Drupal is ahead, by including RESTful web service wizard" (downsides, of course, if you don’t setup separate web service hub instance) Collections: Built into Plone and still hard to beat; powerful content reuse feature LDAP (SSO) Integration: Drupal’s is said to be lacking (by analysts) Versioning: Plone’s is more robust http://www.contextualcorp.com19 Convergence Summary Upgrade Path/Options: " - Plone’s one-click upgrade has consistently surpassed Drupal and others" - Drupal upgrade path from 6 to 7 was said to be miserable by users" - Drupal 8 with major backend architecture changes is out in 2013; upgrade path?" - Both Plone and Drupal add-ons still require active community or changes by you for upgrades" - Custom add-ons are up to you, but both communities provide recipes to modify Versioning: Plone’s is more robust Authentication: Plone seems to have more Pluggable Auth Service options (that work)" http://www.contextualcorp.com20 System Analogies / Similarities Config Files: Drupal .info files similar to Plone .zcml and profiles .xml settings Templates: PHP vs TAL - Drupal has an overrides behavior based on naming convention; Plone has skin path ‘layers’ + using same name to provide for overrides Toolbar: " - As of Drupal 7, it now has one; more similar to Plone in-context editing now" - With Plnoe, you can install plone.app.toolbar, if you like it at the top as Drupal has it" - Easier to add links to user-specific shortcuts menu in Drupal" - Have to go into ZMI -> portal_actions to add to user-actions list of links in Plone Dashboard:" - Similar in many ways" - Plone provides more stock portlets to drop-in" - Drupal provides slicker drag/drop placement of portlets/blocks into node areas Content Types:" - Can design them via web GUI in both tools now; in core with both now" - Surprised at lack of built-in types with Drupal, though; just Page and Article (similar to Plone News Item with listing/preview image field) " " http://www.contextualcorp.com21 Finally - Screen Shots of Drupal http://www.contextualcorp.com22 Drupal: Editing Page http://www.contextualcorp.com23 Drupal: Editing Page - Link Handling http://www.contextualcorp.com24 Drupal: Add-on ‘Modules’ http://www.contextualcorp.com25 Drupal: Configuration Panel http://www.contextualcorp.com26 Drupal: Content Types http://www.contextualcorp.com27 Drupal: Dashboard http://www.contextualcorp.com28 Drupal: Built-in Help http://www.contextualcorp.com29 Drupal Weaknesses Workflow:" - go to https://drupal.org/node/369988 (Getting Started With Drupal page) and search for 'workflow'... nada" - Workflow module can be downloaded/installed, but has 127 open issues and 58 open bugs" - is still an afterthought in Drupal, but wouldn’t be surprised if added to core laterSecurity:" - The Good: Drupal has a Security Team and the ‘core’ has few vulnerabilities" - The Bad: You can’t do much with only the lightweight ‘core’" - You will need/use many add-ons and many are insecure and/or don’t scale well" - Search the CVE vulnerabilities database for ‘drupal’ or for ‘plone’ and compare" - ~4-6 vulnerabilities per month for Drupal (~ 3/year for Plone)" See: https://drupal.org/security/contrib for latest list Drupal vuln alerts" See: http://plone.org/products/plone/security/advisories/plone-securit y-advisories for Plone vuln alerts" http://www.contextualcorp.com30 Drupal Strengths Similar to Plone: Open, Community-driven, Collaboration Admin UI has More Polish (nice overlays, even on Site Setup type panels) Larger Install Base / Market Share than Plone Easy to find cheap PHP/MySQL hosting PHP (more devs; easier entry for designers with HTML skills) Applications: Social/Collaboration sites with syndication and commenting/discussion" http://www.contextualcorp.com31 Drupal Weaknesses PHP:" - Possibly the most hacked websites out there (Wordpress, Joomla fall into category)" - Only included true O-O (object-oriented) features a few years ago" - Is still not as robust in performance as other options Available Talent Pool:" - True of any CMS tool worth its weight, though - with capabilities comes complexity" (Plone, Fatwire, CQ, Vignette, Sitecore, etc.) Project Management by Community (basically leaning on Acquia for direction) Performance:" - Out-of-box performance is much slower than Plone and Drupal 7 is even slower than Drupal 6" - Drupal 8 is a redo of much of the backend framework; will it be faster or slower?" - Experienced Drupal integrators are needed to get around the performance issues, but that is common among many web software platforms" http://www.contextualcorp.com32 Drupal Weaknesses - as by Dries Rudimentary Authoring Experience In-Context Editing Experience that Lags Plone Aging Web Framework (being replaced in Drupal 8 with Symfony) Small Available Talent Pool " http://www.contextualcorp.com33

The Application of Drupal to Website Development in Academic Libraries Cristina Tofan Eastern Kentucky University Libraries 1. Introduction Academic libraries think very carefully about how they design their website, because the website is the primary avenue to provide access to resources, do library instruction, promote collections, services and events, and connect with students, faculty and potential donors. Library websites are expected to be able to respond to two major types of needs: to offer high functionality to the patrons, and to allow librarians and library staff to participate in the un‐intermediated creation and publication of content. Web content management systems are software systems that provide tools for both. In the realm of open source content management systems, Drupal has the lead compared to other systems, in its adoption in libraries.

  • State of Plone 4 and 5
    Stability versus new features STATE OF PLONE 4 AND 5 STATE OF PLONE 4 AND 5 Maurits van Rees, Dec 7 2020 PLONE CONFERENCE Hello everyone. I will be presenting the State of Plone 4 and 5. As a general theme throughout this talk I will focus on stability versus new features. WHO AM I? Maurits van Rees Netherlands -> Belgium Zest Software, Netherlands 15 years Plone Security Team Release Team I have lived in The Netherlands for most of my life. Two years ago I moved to Belgium, where I got married with Fiorella, the lovely lady on the right. And there is my daughter Nika and since 15 October I have a sonTobias. Since the beginning of 2020 I am the second release manager. The idea is that I focus on the current versions of Plone, getting regular, stable releases out. Since then I made four Plone releases: 4.3.20, 5.1.7, 5.2.2 and 5.2.3. I will talk a bit about those. https://plone.org/download/release-schedule But one of the first things that I did, was to create a Plone release schedule. This was inspired by the Django release schedule. Django has it a bit easier, because its core is only one package, where Plone has lots. So the Plone release schedule is by nature less predictable. You can fine the schedule at https://plone.org/download/release-schedule This is the place to go when you are looking for information on what is the latest version within a Plone release, and is this Plone release still supported, and how long will it be supported.

Since its release in 1998, Zope continues to grow into many distinct applications, frameworks, libraries and tools. The World of Zope highlights the most important components. Zope community projects are hosted in the Zope Foundation organization on GitHub. Contents 1 Zope Project and Community Documentation 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 The World of Zope A Bit of History In 1996 Jim Fulton, now Zope Corporation CTO, was drafted to teach a class on common gateway interface (CGI) programming, despite not knowing very much about the subject. CGI programming is a commonly-used web development model that allows developers to construct dynamic web sites. Traveling to the class, Jim studied all the existing documentation on CGI. On the way back, Jim considered what he didn’t like about traditional CGI- based programming environments. From these initial musings the core of Zope was written while flying back from the CGI class. Zope Corporation (then known as Digital Creations) went on to release three open-source software packages to support web publishing: Bobo, Document Template, and BoboPOS. These packages were written in a language called Python, and provided a web publishing facility, text templating, and an object database, respectively.

Using an object-relational mapping is not like using an object database. • almost no seam between code and database. • Relationships between objects are handled very naturally, supporting complex object graphs without joins. Check out the Tutorial! ZODB runs on Python 2.7 or Python 3.4 and above. It also runs on PyPy. Contents 1 ZODB documentation and articles 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 Learning more 1.1 Introduction 1.1.1 Transactions Transactions make programs easier to reason about. Transactions are atomic Changes made in a transaction are either saved in their entirety or not at all. This makes error handling a lot easier. If you have an error, you just abort the current transaction. You don’t have to worry about undoing previous database changes. Transactions provide isolation Transactions allow multiple logical threads (threads or processes) to access databases and the database prevents the threads from making conflicting changes. This allows you to scale your application across multiple threads, processes or machines without having to use low-level locking primitives. You still have to deal with concurrency on some level. For timestamp-based systems like ZODB, you may have to retry conflicting transactions.

Contents 1 plone.api Documentation, Release 1.1.0-rc.1 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 A Plone API 1.1 plone.api • Documentation @ api.plone.org • Source code @ GitHub • Issues @ GitHub • Continuous Integration @ Travis CI • Code Coverage @ Coveralls.io Overview The plone.api is an elegant and simple API, built for humans wishing to develop with Plone. It comes with cookbook-like documentation and step-by-step instructions for doing common development tasks in Plone. Recipes try to assume the user does not have extensive knowledge about Plone internals. The intention of this package is to provide clear API methods for Plone functionality which may be confusing or difficult to access. As the underlying code improves some API methods may be deprecated and the documentation here will be updated to show how to use the improved code (even if it means not using plone.api) Some parts of the documentation do not use plone.api methods directly, but simply provide guidance on achieving a task using Plone’s internal API. For example, using the portal catalog (see ‘Find content objects’).
